Charleston Running Club We're a non-profit organization of 700+ runners and walkers in Charleston, South Carolina.

The Charleston Running Club promotes, encourages, and organizes running activities in the Charleston, SC, area. Whether you're a lifelong resident or a short term visitor, we want you to explore the Lowcountry by running through our historic city streets, along our scenic beaches, or across the Cooper River Bridge. In the 1970s, our club helped start two of the area's largest races, the Cooper River Bridge Run and the Kiawah Marathon. Today, we host the Charlie Post Classic 15K/5K in January, the Floppin’ Flounder 5K in June, and the James Island Connector Run in October. We welcome and embrace all runners, whether you're a beginner or one of South Carolina's elite runners. Our club hosts group runs, socials, educational speakers, and volunteers in our community. In addition to the social benefits, you'll receive discounts on races, free training clinics, breakfast at the Cooper River Bridge Run finish lines, and an annual holiday party. No matter where you are on your running journey, you'll find a welcoming community in Charleston Running Club.

Our Tuesday Night Group Run is back in action this week at Kickin' Chicken MTP. It's a great run to prepare for the James Island Connector Run 5K/8K or Bohicket Half Marathon.

We run at 6:30 PM on Tuesday Nights, then come back to the bar to socialize. You can run the bridge or a flat pier route, and everyone is welcome.

It's getting dark early, so bring a light, and we'll see you on Tuesday!

It's Throwback Thursday!

Today's throwback photos are from Saturday's Avondale 5K. Way to go to everyone who dodged puddles for 3.1 miles in one of West Ashley's only 5Ks. Plus, the Charles Webb Center is a wonderful cause.

See you on the roads this weekend!

Our crew had a blast at today's Avondale 5K Run and Walk! This is one of West Ashley's only 5Ks and has been going strong for 17 years. The proceeds benefit the Charles Webb Center for special needs kids.

We're proud to sponsor the Avondale 5K and run, volunteer, and support it. Congratulations to all who got out in the crazy conditions for the run today!
